EDIT: Bethesda stepped in and rescinded the DMCA. Was made by Tracer without Bethesda's knowledge. Bethesda was not the bad guy. Original comment below.
Should just ignore it. What's Bethesda going to do about it?
Honestly I wouldn't even be surprised if this is AI overzealously abusing DMCA, which is hyper-omega-turbo-common nowadays. It came from Tracer, not Bethesda, so this is the most likely explanation. The ONLY thing they could ding the guy on is MAYBE trademark infringement, but then he can just change the name from fo2 to something else and no problems. I don't see why he cant just do that.
I also don't see why him serving is important to the story for any reason other than sympathy points. Whether he was serving in a war or not is irrelevant to how erronious the DMCA abuse is. The abuse is just as bad either way.
They could try invading Ukraine. All my Russian acquaintances assure me it’s quick and easy.
In and out, three days max.
To be fair - It would have worked - VDV streaming out of Hostomel airport toward Kyiv was a recipe for success.
Thank dog it was Biden's term though, the US intelligence that Ukraine should that airport at all costs saved them.
They could ask Ford for tips on raising their own crack squad of private enforcers, to send over there!
Ford or Hasbro. The secret is the same:
The Pinkertons.
Makes me think of a recent Davie504 video where he said he got a copyright notice for playing “the sound of silence” when what actually happened was he joked he was going to and then played a muted video of him playing the bass. Actual insanity.
Military behind lines can be pretty important because of delays in them receiving notices and their ability to do anything about it. Pretty much every legal notice gets a timeframe before things occur. Usually something like a month is sufficient, but for someone in military service, who have arguably the best excuse to not be able to do regular things for a whole month, the usual polite way to go about things is to wait for them to return home, and historically, courts have thrown out cases for people who didn't do that, because it wasn't a reasonable amount of notice.
No idea about the legalities of this particular case, but it is extra rude, getting a court date and losing by default for not showing up when you didn't show up because another part of government mandated you be on a battlefield.
